Actualmente tengo un modelo simple definido, con una función photoupload usandominiaturas de django enchufar.

pero cuando intento subirlo me da el siguiente error:

OSError at /admin/products/photo/add/

(13, 'Permission denied')

Ahora, sé que esto parece ser un problema de permisos, así que lo primero que revisé fueron los permisos en el directorio y los cambié a 777 (solo para prueba), reinicié el servidor y fcgi y aún da el error.

El usuario en el que se está ejecutando el demonio FCGI definitivamente tiene acceso para leer y escribir en ese directorio.

Desde settings.py

MEDIA_ROOT = '/var/www/sites/gang/http/media/'
MEDIA_ROOT_URL = '/media/'
